inductive
An inference is a conclusion based on information given.A prediction is an educated guess of what will happen next without any knowledge of the actual results.Example: An experiment is designed to test if hot water will dissolve more salt than cold water.PREDICTION: 'Hot water will dissolve more salt than cold water'. (This is what you PREDICT before the experiment is done.)INFERENCE: 'Hot water dissolved more salt than cold water because.......'. (This is what you INFER after the experiment is done).
The name given to the attractive force experienced by all matter is gravity. Gravity is caused by the core of the earth and keeps everything from floating away.
Looking at a sphere, the Earth, from the side, i.e. - the equator, eliminating each 'pole' position, which would appear as 'points', as opposed to 'lines', lines drawn at one degree intervals from top (North) to bottom (South), would number 178; given that there are 180 degrees from North to South.
The 3-letter name given to a mountain pass is "Col."
The fumes given off when crystals of iodine are heated are purple in color.
Deductive reasoning is the process of coming to a specific conclusion when given general facts. For example: 1. All men are mortal. 2. Joe is a man. 3. Ergo, Joe is mortal.
A conclusion logically follows from other statements when it is a necessary inference based on the information provided. In logical reasoning, a conclusion is reached by applying valid reasoning rules to the given premises. If the conclusion can be drawn directly from the premises using these rules, it is said to follow logically.
conclusion
The logical process of moving from a given statement or set of statements to a conclusion is called deductive reasoning. This type of reasoning involves drawing conclusions that are necessarily true based on the information provided in the premises.

Deductive reasoning is the process of coming to a specific conclusion when given general facts. For example: 1. All men are mortal. 2. Joe is a man. 3. Ergo, Joe is mortal.
Inductive reasoning is " reasoning in which the premises seek to supply strong evidence for (not absolute proof of) the truth of the conclusion. While the conclusion of a deductive argument is supposed to be certain, the truth of the conclusion of an inductive argument is supposed to be probable, based upon the evidence given.". This is the reasoning behind most for scientific and mathematical studies.
Deductive Reasoning
That is called deductive reasoning. Deductive reasoning uses established principles or premises to reach a logical conclusion. It involves applying logical rules to derive specific conclusions from general principles.
A "conjecture" is a conclusion reached simply from observations...this is a process known as "inductive reasoning". An example would be a weather forecast. The difference between "inductive reasoning" and "deductive reasoning" is that with deductive reasoning, the answer must "necessarily" follow from a set of premises. Inductive reasoning is the process by which you make a mathematical "hypothesis" given a set of observations
